Everybody Else Is Making A Laptop Stand, So Why Can't I?

Step 3 Back and Front

Cut two sticks to "appropriate length" (fitting your computer) for the back, and one for the front.

Screw the back sticks together (pre-drill) to avoid bends, and stick them together with epoxy. Clamp them together.

Carefully and precisely drill holes on the sticks. Pre-drill the tray without damaging it (this is the only tricky step).

Screw the front and back sticks to the tray.
